Personal Space.
Fang Qing cursed and swore continuously.
His words were filled with disdain and contempt for Heiyu Ao.
He had used his family’s power to pressure Lin Yuan, an Evolver, even involving the whole Canglan Star to force Lin Yuan into submission.
In Fang Qing’s view, this was beneath his dignity and was a disgrace to the Heiyu Family.
“Lin Yuan, rest assured, I’ve roughly got the gist of the matter.”
Fang Qing looked at Lin Yuan and began to speak.
Since passing the test of the Seven Star Cave, Fang Qing had taken a spacecraft from the Red Kun Lineage to the Chikun Main Star.
Once there, Fang Qing had a lot to do, and his interaction with Lin Yuan had decreased.
After all, joining the Red Kun Lineage didn’t mean total peace and comfort.
As a member of the Red Kun Lineage, Fang Qing had to face various competitions, leaving him with little spare time.
“I indeed do not want to become a subordinate of Heiyu Ao.”
Lin Yuan shook his head and said.
“I know.”
Fang Qing nodded.
“Leave this matter to me.”
Fang Qing spoke with confidence.
He was now a member of the Red Kun Lineage.
And the Red Kun Lineage was the undisputed Dominion of the Chikun Star Domain. Any Evolver even slightly associated with the Red Kun Lineage was set to soar to great heights.
How much more so for Fang Qing, a formal member of the Red Kun Lineage?
“We’ll start with diplomacy and if necessary, move to force.”
“Let’s talk after meeting Heiyu Ao.”
Fang Qing said calmly.
If, by his intervention, Heiyu Ao could be persuaded to stop targeting Canglan Star, then all would be well and good.
If Heiyu Ao was unwilling, Fang Qing had ways to resolve the issue.
“Thanks.”
Lin Yuan expressed his gratitude with slight emotion.
Facing the oppression of the Heiyu Family, Lin Yuan remained fearless because he knew his true trump card.
But Fang Qing was unaware of it.
Despite the overwhelming public pressure on Canglan Star at present, Fang Qing still resolutely stood on his side, which could certainly be considered loyal.
Next.
In front of Lin Yuan,
Fang Qing dialed Heiyu Ao’s contact.
After a short while,
The figure of Heiyu Ao appeared before Fang Qing.
“Brother Fang, long time no see.”
Heiyu Ao looked at Fang Qing with a smile on his face.
In this session of the Seven Star Cave trials, only a little over three hundred Evolvers passed, and the Heiyu Family, being part of the Red Kun Lineage, naturally remembered these three hundred clearly.
Even during the recent celebration by the thirteen Peak Masters, Fang Qing and the other new members of the Red Kun Lineage had interacted with the Heiyu Family and other powers, where Heiyu Ao had exchanged a few words with Fang Qing.
“Heiyu Ao, let’s skip the pointless chatter.”
Fang Qing got straight to the point, “Do you know where I come from?”
“What do you mean, Brother Fang?” The smile quickly disappeared from Heiyu Ao’s face.
He obviously knew that Fang Qing came from Canglan Star, but so what?
He’s only targeting Lin Yuan; all Lin Yuan has to do is bow his head to him, and the pressure on Canglan Star will stop.
In the grand scheme, Canglan Star might lose some economy, but it wouldn’t harm the overall situation.
“Lin Yuan is my best friend and brother. Canglan Star is also my home planet. Withdraw your petty schemes.”
Fang Qing started talking.
“Oh?”
Heiyu Ao’s expression remained unchanged, “What schemes? I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
“Still pretending?”
Fang Qing scoffed, “You instructed the Heiyu Family’s high levels to interrupt trade with Canglan Star and spread that all of this is because Lin Yuan did not accept your offer. Do you really think I can’t see through such tricks?”
“Brother Fang, you’ve misunderstood. Interrupting trade with Canglan Star was the family leadership’s decision; they think it’s inappropriate to continue cooperation with Canglan Star. What does that have to do with me?”
Heiyu Ao vehemently denied responsibility.
No matter what, he could not leave any evidence; Fang Qing was from the Red Kun Lineage, and even as just an ordinary member, he didn’t want to get into a direct conflict with him.
After all, interrupting trade with Canglan Star was legal and legitimate; even the Goddess of Wisdom could not find fault with it, so Fang Qing could not get a hold of any leverage over him.
“Heiyu Ao, are you sure you want to be my enemy?”
Fang Qing stared at Heiyu Ao, asserting each word distinctly.
“Brother Fang, what’s this about being enemies? I don’t have that kind of power.”
Heiyu Ao shook his head as he spoke.
“Fine.”
Fang Qing immediately ended the call with Heiyu Ao.
“This Heiyu Ao, he’s completely unyielding.”
Fang Qing rolled his eyes, “It seems Lin Yuan’s charm is indeed too great, making Heiyu Ao risk offending the Red Kun Lineage rather than conceding.”
“But it’s not a big problem.”
Fang Qing stood up, looked at Lin Yuan, and said, “Lin Yuan, just wait for my good news.”
Having said that,
Fang Qing disappeared from the spot.
As Lin Yuan watched Fang Qing leave,
He fell into deep thought.
He had somewhat neglected Fang Qing’s presence.
It could be said that any person from the Red Kun Lineage intervening to help Lin Yuan deal with the Heiyu Family’s oppression
Would draw the attention of many powers, putting Lin Yuan at risk of having his identity exposed.
But Fang Qing was an exception.
Because Fang Qing also was from Canglan Star, and had participated in tournaments with Lin Yuan, the two had a considerable connection.
Now that Lin Yuan was being targeted by the Heiyu Family, and Fang Qing had joined the Red Kun Lineage and possessed the capability to solve the issue, his help would not raise suspicions. Even the most skilled ‘Diviners’ would not deduce anything, finding it entirely normal and reasonable.
…
Within a magnificent palace,
Heiyu Ao sat on the throne.
“Young Master, to show such disregard for Fang Qing’s position, might it not be…”
Bei Zhao, having witnessed the entire process, showed a look of worry on his face.
“Don’t worry.”
“That Fang Qing is just an ordinary member of the Red Kun Lineage, he can’t represent the entire Red Kun Lineage.”
Heiyu Ao shook his head and said, “And I didn’t confront him directly, there’s no telling evidence. What can they do to me?”
If it were a core member of the Red Kun Lineage, Heiyu Ao would perhaps have to swallow his pride and yield, but a mere ordinary member? Especially one who had recently joined the Red Kun Lineage?
